What customers say

5.0 ★ · 1 review
  • This serum’s texture is so silky and light—instantly absorbs without any sticky feel. after a couple of uses, my skin felt smoother and looked brighter. fine lines seem less noticeable, and it didn’t irritate my skin at all. retinol lovers, this is a gem.

WellDerma Retinol Peptide Improve Wrinkle Lifting Restore Ampoule combines what WellDerma call pure retinol with eight peptides, niacinamide, adenosine and seven forms of hyaluronic acid. It targets the look of fine lines and firmness, with brighter, more even-looking skin as a second benefit.

What it does

Retinol, a form of vitamin A, encourages smoother-looking skin over time. Adenosine targets the look of wrinkles and niacinamide helps even tone; in Korea it is registered as a functional cosmetic for both. Peptides, hyaluronic acid and panthenol keep skin hydrated.

Why we chose it

We see it as a hydrating retinol-and-peptide serum for the look of fine lines and firmness, with retinol, eight peptides and several hyaluronic acids in one step. WellDerma do not state the retinol percentage and our box does not show one, so we cannot tell you how strong it is; if you want a retinol of a known strength, this is not the one to choose.

Best for

  • The look of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Skin that looks less firm or bouncy
  • Dry skin that wants retinol with hydration
  • Dullness and uneven tone

Not ideal if

  • You are pregnant or breastfeeding: it contains retinol, so ask your doctor or pharmacist. Medicube PDRN Pink Peptide Serum has peptides and no retinoid
  • You avoid fragrance or animal-derived ingredients: it lists fragrance, milk protein extract, collagen and hydrolysed elastin
  • You have a nut allergy: it contains shea butter

Key ingredients

  • Retinol: smoother-looking texture and the look of fine lines over time
  • Eight peptides, including palmitoyl pentapeptide-4: the look of firmness
  • Adenosine: the look of wrinkles
  • Niacinamide: helps even tone and supports the barrier
  • Seven hyaluronic acids and panthenol: hydration

Texture and finish

A yellow, slightly thick ampoule that WellDerma say absorbs without stickiness.

Where it goes in your routine

In the evening, after cleansing and toner, before moisturiser. Spread an even layer and pat lightly until absorbed, as the box directs, avoiding the eyes and lips. Introduce it gradually rather than every evening from the start, and build up as your skin allows. Wear sunscreen every morning, such as Purito Wonder Releaf Centella Daily Sun Lotion.

What to expect

Skin feels hydrated straight away. Some dryness is possible while you get used to retinol; if so, use it less often. Fine lines and firmness change gradually with steady use and daily sunscreen.

Good to know

  • Contains retinol (vitamin A): introduce slowly and wear SPF daily; not recommended in pregnancy or breastfeeding without medical advice
  • Contains fragrance, plus lavender, rosemary, thyme and oregano extracts
  • Contains milk protein extract (animal-derived), plus collagen and elastin of unstated source
  • Contains shea butter (nut-derived); no exfoliating acids

How strong is the retinol?

We don't know, and we won't guess. WellDerma do not state the retinol percentage and our box does not print one. If you want a retinol of a known strength, choose a product that states it.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

Not as a default. It contains retinol, and the ingredients include a scent ingredient plus lavender, rosemary, thyme and oregano extracts. If your skin reacts easily, Medicube PDRN Pink Peptide Serum gives you peptides without a retinoid.

Can I use it while pregnant or breastfeeding?

It contains retinol, so ask your doctor or pharmacist first. Medicube PDRN Pink Peptide Serum has peptides and no retinoid.

Does it contain animal-derived or nut ingredients?

Yes. It lists milk protein extract, plus collagen and hydrolysed elastin of unstated source, and it contains shea butter, which is nut-derived.

Does it help with dullness too?

In Korea it is registered as a functional cosmetic for both brightening and wrinkle care, and it contains niacinamide. We see brightening as a second benefit; the main reason to choose it is the look of fine lines and firmness.
